About Me

Hi there, and welcome to my blog!

My name is André Kamman and I’m a geek who earnes a living as a Data Platform Architect, mostly related to Microsoft technology, with a strong background in SQL Server.

I’m a Microsoft SQL Server MVP since 2009, which these days is called a Data Platform MVP.

My company is simply called andrekamman.com, I bring 30+ years of experience and I have a very decent network on which I can count in case something weird pops up and I have to “ask a friend”.

This blog is both my personal blog and it’s also where my work related stuff will show up .
I may write about general geek stuff and about SQL Server so if you’re not interested in both you might be bored with at least half the things I post 😉
